Update: I got the job! Thank you again for all the advice. I researched the facility and MDs' licenses and it appears to be a completely respectable place with a good record. It may not be a...
Thank you for the input everyone! Lots of great feedback. I'll treat the interview like any other- do my homework, and not judge the place before I even get there. I won't ask about the internet...
Thank you, needshaldol. The "reviews" were on a few different websites, and were just polls about satisfaction, wait times, etc. I didn't see a lot of free response. But out of about 4 such sites...
